Tax Delinquency on Rural Real Estate, 1928-1941; Selected References

Excerpts from the Foreword: This bibliography contains selected references to books, pamphlets, and periodical articles published since 1928 on the subject of tax delinquency on rural real estate in the United States, including its extent, causes and remedies, forfeiture of lands, tax sales, and redemption procedure. It brings to date similar material included in the bibliography, Taxation and the Farmer, by Margaret T. Olcott, issued in 1928 as Agricultural Economics Bibliography no. 25. References on tax delinquency of forest and cut-over lands have been included when found, as have references to general studies on tax delinquency and urban studies which seemed general in application, but an exhaustive search has not been made for such material. Although books on public finance, as a rule, were not examined, a few references to such publications containing chapters on tax delinquency have been included. References to newspaper articles, governors’ messages, and, with a few exceptions, articles in farm papers have been omitted. The references are arranged by states, groups of states, and territories, preceded by a general section and followed by the list of sources for legislation. A subject and author index is appended. Call numbers following the citations are those of the U. S. Department of Agriculture Library, unless otherwise noted. "Libr. Cong.” preceding a call number indicates that the publication is in the Library of Congress.
